Abbeville council condemns dilapidated structure at 1502 W. Bash, gives owner 60 days to demolish
Summary
The council voted to condemn the structure at 1502 W. Bash and granted the owner 60 days to complete self-demolition after the owner told the city she would obtain a demolition permit and tear down the remainder of the trailer.
The Abbeville City Council voted Dec. 16 to condemn the structure at 1502 W. Bash and gave the owner 60 days to complete demolition.
City staff told council the property owner was not present but had called to say she would obtain a demolition permit and tear down the remainder of the trailer. A $150 self-demolition permit was reported as expected to be picked up. After council members discussed the property’s condition and length of time it had been in disrepair, a council member made a motion to condemn the structure and another moved to grant 60 days for demolition; both motions carried.
Council discussion noted the property had been in the condemnation process since 2024 and that the owner said she had already started the demolition-permit process. The council recorded the decision as condemnation with a 60-day compliance window.
